JimboB4 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Recently did my marriage visa extension at Korat immigration and only new thing is now I have to have my US Government pension letter translated to Thai. Not a big deal if you are aware of it ahead of time and not find out the day you go to apply. Gets easier every year. @ubonjoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gottfrid Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Yes, In Korat Immigration. Which will surely differ in 100 versions in other provinces and offices. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the IOs at Korat, Buriram & Surin are much more farang friendly than many other offices, going by some of the posts on here. I have had to deal with Korat, Surin & Buriram IOs during my time here and have never had any real issues with 1 year extensions/TM30/90 Day reporting or with the way I've been treated.

OneZero Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Recently did my marriage visa extension at Korat immigration and only new thing is now I have to have my US Government pension letter translated to Thai. Not a big deal if you are aware of it ahead of time and not find out the day you go to apply. JIMBOB4 or Ubonjoe: 1. I Didn't know that this type evidence was officially (stamped, etc) issued by USG (in light of US Embassy no longer issuing an affidavit of income). Perhaps I just don't understand, Could someone please elaborate. 2. Could someone also please advise what Thai Immigration allows such a USG letter to substitutes for (Thai baht in bank, monthly foreign receipt?). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaoboi Bebobp Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) There is just one small step toward having to have pension statements for the retirement extension translated into Thai. (Yes, the Canadian embassy does notarize federal pension and company pension statements. For now!) So the question is, is this a requirement for all immigration districts?

You still have to do 12 months of transfers into a Thai bank to prove your income. They can ask for proof of the source of the income and that is what the pension letter is for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has a list of all my income, which is all pension. Edited December 3, 2021 by Scott Tracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confuscious Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I use already 3 years an official letter about my pension issued by the pension funds and translated into Thai (Maem) instead of the "Affidavit" from the Embassy. Every time accepted without discussion. At Korat immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
